This site has been created by the Media and Digital Learning Department to provide the Needham Public Schools Community with a "one stop" spot for several resources. The three main resource areas are Digital Citizenship, Digital Toolbox, and Copyright and Fair Use.

The Digital Citizenship section is a collection of resources to guide users to learn and teach about Digital Citizenship. The resources are categorized in one of seven primary topics and within each topic, by age. They are also fully searchable.

The next section is Digital Toolbox. Here is where you will find help documents, a list of digital tools that have already been vetted and adopted by the district for use, and in the future, a gallery of student work to inspire all learners to incorporate digital learning.

In the Copyright and Fair Use area, the team has assembled a comprehensive set of resources to guide teachers and students in determining whether their planned use of information/material is permissible.

The resources assembled under Digital Citizenship and Copyright and Fair Use are already robust. Department members are continuing to contribute to the Digital Toolbox and over time this will become a richer, more comprehensive repository.
